Trans. R.A.S. Macalister
Only two mss. of R1 survive, namely, L and F.
L. The Book of Leinster (T.C.D. Library, H.2.18), c. 1150 a.d. In this codex our text occupies folios 1-13.
F. The Book of Fermoy (R.I.A. Library, 23 E.29). The connexion of this copy of LG with the Book of Fermoy is factitious and partial only. It is written upon twenty-two folios of vellum, of which the first eight form a gathering, bound into the front of the Book of Fermoy : the remaining fourteen Macalister had the good fortune to identify in one of the Stowe mss. (R.I.A. Library, D.3.1).
For now, I have been unable to find Vol. II of the Lebor Gabala Erenn, so I rely on John D. Mclaughlin for some parts of the text as established here.
